| Airstream Rv's recalled for Brake Failure Risk |
Summary: 
Airstream
is recalling certain model year 2006-2009 Airstream Classic
recreational vehicles manufactured between May 2005 and April 2009. The
brake hose may flex near the fitting on the brake assembly and lead to
hose fatigue. Also, during suspension travel, the brake hose may rub on
the underside of the trailer.
Consequence: As
a result of flexing or rubbing, the brake hose may fail causing a loss
of brake pressure, reducing braking performance. The loss of braking
ability could result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk
of a crash.
